Learning ObjectivesCalculate the specific gravity of a wet gas mixture, given producing GOR (at separator(s) and stock tank and:
compositions liquid and gas from stock tank and separator gasor, separator compositions (gas & liquid)or, properties of the separator gas and stock vent gas
Define the two-phase z-factor and understand the uses of this in reservoir engineeringExplain the shape of a typical two-phase z-factor isotherm. Calculate values of two-phase z-factor using Rayes etal. correlation (SPE paper).

Key Points
What matters is the molar ratio of gas to oil so let’s assume one barrel of oil produced Methods to evaluate oil density will be discussed in Chapter 11 (here it will be provided)To convert oAPI to oil density

Once Gas Specific Gravity is Known
Evaluate Tpc and Ppc (previous paper using K and J and including corrections for impurities N2, CO2, H2S)If dew-point pressure is not known
Use dry-gas z-factor when C7+ < 4%Or when wellstream gravity < 0.911
If pd is known if reservoir p is lower than pd evaluate z-2phase using equation from SPE 20055 paperIf reservoir p is greater than pd , evaluate z as for a dry gas (single-phase)

There are 2 hydrocarbon components stock-tank oil and surface-gas.The surface gas can dissolve into both the reservoir oil- and gas- phases (accounted for by Rs).The stock-tank oil (also called surface oil) cannot be volatilized into the gas phase.
